String ‘em up

The RSPB allow shooting syndicates on several of their sites as the syndicates control the vermin including foxes. There was an outcry against this a little while ago round here when a badly shot duck was found. It seems most probable that it was shot by poachers, but suddenly people realised that the marshes were being rented to people for shooting, so great ho haa. The owners, can't remember if it was the RSPB or another group, pointed out that the marshes were only so good for birds because of the lessees control of predators.
